POPI Act
The Protection of Personal Information Act is South Africa’s equivalent to the EU GDPR. It sets some conditions for responsible parties (called controllers in other jurisdictions) to lawfully process the personal information of data subjects (both natural and juristic persons).
The POPI Act applies to every business in South Africa (even international companies that do business in South Africa) that collects, uses, stores or destroys personal information from a data subject (the natural or legal entity to whom the information belongs), whether or not such processing is automatic.
